QUILL REQUIREMENTS

You decide which ballets to study and which not, meaning that you also decide what assignments to do or not do. But in order to pass this class and earn a quill I’m only asking you to earn at least 180 points, and one portion of those points should come from the final exam, which means that the exam is aMUST.
